Jonathan Thomas French - Even If

Of all of the things
I never told you
But for your wings
That always hold you
I tell you now, that it
Meant the world
Even though those wings
Have become a blur
When you look
Back at me, I wonder
Does she even remember me
And the things I told her
I felt wrong for feeling
Like I had to hold you
I tried to pretend that I got you
Because someone had sold you
But I commonly overspend
I budgeted more than
Could fit in my hand
And now as I walk
Down the aisle
It’s completely empty
I can’t buy anything,
Because it’s all blank
Extending for miles
The store must have
Lost their suppliers
It doesn’t make any sense
Because I saw
The sale on the flyers
But I guess the joke’s on me
I guess that all I saw were liars.
My grocery list
Has nothing written
I don’t even know
What I’m forgetting
All I know is what I remember
Forever, I’ll remember, even if
My memory disappears
And You’re no longer here
Your scent no longer lingers
Around the aura that is near
I search for you
With broken lights
Trying to find your woken eyes
Maybe if I had acted right
You’d be here with me tonight
I look to the future
With hopes of a better life
I look for the wrongs I’ve done
So that I can make them right
Please believe me
When I say it’s true
That my memory still holds
What I know is still true
Because, Even If
We never lock eyes again
Even if we’re not
Together in the end
Even if I forget the memory
I promise that
I’ll never forget you
So, now I march
Forward, headstrong
There’s no one else
That’ll set me off
The hill I climbed
Was much too tall
And there’s no way
That I’ll endure another fall
Every now and then, I look back
I see the haze of your eyes
And sometimes
I hear your laugh.
But I’m confused, split in two
Because who I see now, isn’t you
But the similarities are so close
That it almost
Seems to be wrong
I’ll always love you the most
But perhaps we weren’t
The best song
Should I accept the reality
That our collision
Was a calamity
Should I respect your decision
To leave me
In this shambled city
Should I call out your name
To try and get me to fame
Blame, blame, blame
It’s all the same
My memory disappears
And You’re no longer here
Your scent no longer lingers
Around the aura that is near
I search for you
With broken lights
Trying to find your woken eyes
Maybe if I had acted right
You’d be here with me tonight
I look to the future
With hopes of a better life
I look for the wrongs I’ve done
So that I can make them right
Please believe me
When I say it’s true
That my memory still holds
What I know is still true
Because, Even If
We never lock eyes again
Even if we’re not
Together in the end
Even if I forget the memory
I promise that
I’ll never forget you
Around me now I see love
For so long, Ive been in cuffs
Feeling angry, I looked up above
I saw no one. Nothing
Just black. Not even a dove
But now, my vision is healing
What’s real is finally feeling
Like a mental block disappearing
This hazy lie is clearing
I’m driving safely, and steering
To a figure that is endearing
I’ll never look back
I’ll always look forward
But your bond with me
Has no slack
My past is no more
My memory disappears
And You’re no longer here
Your scent no longer lingers
Around the aura that is near
I search for you
With broken lights
Trying to find your woken eyes
Maybe if I had acted right
You’d be here with me tonight
I look to the future
With hopes of a better life
I look for the wrongs I’ve done
So that I can make them right
Please believe me
When I say it’s true
That my memory still holds
What I know is still true
Because, Even If
We never lock eyes again
Even if we’re not
Together in the end
Even if I forget the memory
I promise that
I’ll never forget you
